Summary of the contracting process

Southampton Solent University, a public authority within sub-central government, embarked on a procurement process titled "HALO EBS +Jackets+ Training," focusing on goods related to helicopter transit passenger aviation training and safety equipment, including lifejackets and Emergency Breathing Systems. The procurement was carried out using a direct method, specifically below threshold without competition, and the procurement contract was awarded to Survival One Ltd. Located in Southampton, the university operates as the buyer for this award process, while the supplier, Survival One Ltd., is based in Peterhead, suggesting service provision across regions UKJ32 and UKM50. This contract was signed on 6th February 2026, with an active period running from 11th February until 31st July 2026, indicating the timeframe for delivery and service provision.

This procurement opportunity offers considerable potential for business growth, especially for small and medium-sized enterprises specialising in safety training services, technical manuals, protective clothing, and breathing apparatus. Given the direct award approach and focus on aviation training and safety equipment, companies with expertise in these areas may find future direct procurement methods advantageous. The contract spans several categories, including technical and safety items, highlighting opportunities for suppliers with capacity to deliver diverse, high-quality technical and safety products. Businesses prepared to establish or enhance their presence in such specialised domains will find the focus on technical equipment and training potentially lucrative.
